If it helps, I have tested out another mod which assigned glasses to the helmet/head slot. In that mod's case ("Daedric Glasses"), I found it ineffective to change in the Construction Set its part designation from Helmet to Hand/Right Bracer. I'm guessing there's something behind the scenes, in the Mesh itself, which designates what body part the item is assigned to in the Construction Set.
In Hilgya's mod, glasses are worn as you'd expect--in front of the eyes--but, under the hood, they're technically a right glove that just so happens to appear in front of the eyes (like glasses typically do). It's also considered Clothing rather than Armor.
I'm guessing it's possible, either within the Mesh or in some part of the Construction Set I haven't messed with yet, to keep the glasses where they are--physically speaking--but prevent them from overriding the hair and/or helmet by assigning them to another body part. I think the hand/right bracer is the least noticeable body part to use, in this case.
I'm going to see what I can do using this mod since I believe I forgot an important detail that might work as a DIY solution for OpenMW users.
In Hilgya for Wares, the Glasses item is considered a "Right Glove" but its Part Reference is "Left Knee" and the part itself assigns it to "Knee." However, despite the odd assignments, it appears where glasses should appear.
I tried that with this mod and, instead of appearing where they ought to, they appear over the left knee in a way that makes sense given the description "Left Knee."
Therefore, I'm guessing the solution to make it non-MWSE friendly is to just make the mesh be assigned to another body part (like the Left Knee) but position it (via some Mesh-altering software) well away from the actual Left Knee so it appears before the eyes like glasses ought to. I'm guessing the trick is to position it up-up left from where the eyes actually are so that it just so happens to appear in front of the eyes when you check in the CS. Don't mind the missing knee (in the CS) because the knee appears as it should in-game for some reason. I can't do it myself since I lack the tools but I'm sure somebody with the tools could do it... not sure how easily since it might be finicky.

First of all great mod, love the extra variety Morrowind seems to be getting these days. Secondly, I'm sure it's an issue on my end (using a few mods that lessens the cost of enchantments and adding to enchantment capacity plus visual effect) but after enchanting goggles with nighteye when put on the model seems to disappear. Any idea how I could bypass this? I truly enjoy the esthetic but I won't ditch the comforts of life :)
An exoskeleton made from pieces of fabricants? Something like that: https://sun9-32.userapi.com/impf/c837634/v837634031/57aaf/9x9DQ1fTc4g.jpg?size=1257x991&quality=96&sign=2c671f181a64d97d622cfbc6538527fe&type=album
